Thank you to all who wished me a happy birthday, and for your advice. I'll try to use it and hopefully my friend will take it.
Anyways, I had a great birthday weekend. On the day of my birthday, my brother and his girlfriend came over to visit this weekend. After we picked them up at the airport, we headed to Universal Studios Hollywood. Not only were the rides fun, but the lines weren't too long at all. (On weekends, the lines get longer, so if you plan to go, do it on a weekday) The studio tour was great too, I recommend that you don't sit in the third and fourth car because you don't see things as good as the people in the first two cars. The rides and tour are best done during the day, because at night...Citywalk is even more fun! Citywalk has nice shops, but the Hard Rock Cafe was the best. I didn't go in there to eat though, Instead I went in there to look at the rock memorabilia. I was hoping to find Pete Townshend's guitar, it waasn't there, although I did find John Entwistle's shoes. I also found Metallica's guitar and other cool memorabilia. To those who don't know, here's a brief history of Hard Rock Cafe that I remember reading about and what the waitress told me. It all started when Eric Clapton gives one of his guitars to the Hard Rock Cafe in London and told them to place it right by his favorite spot where he ate. About one and a half weeks later, Pete Townshend gives them his guitar saying that "Mine is as good as his."
On Saturday we went to Rincon beach, which used to be a nudist beach in the 60's, but it's not anymore, but it is a beach that has less people since it's a city beach. State beaches are much more crowded. It wasn't foggy, but it was windy which was a bummer.
My brother and his girlfriend went back home today, but it was nice to see them again. We'll be seeing them in November this year.
Once again, thank you all for the birthday wishes.

Dear Chick
Glad to hear you had a good birthday!
We went to Disneyland last summer with the kids.
It was lots of fun, but a bit of a let-down, because we were on our way home from Fiji which was totally out of this world!!
Thanks for visiting!

...as an afterthought & a fellow head-banger, did you read my "Heatseeker" post?
Yes I did Dale, very cool!
Sounds like you had a great birthday. I envy you the Universal Studios trip. One of my BIG passions are all those old black and white horror movies that came from there: Bela Lugosi as Dracula and Boris Karloff as the Frankenstein monster.
So, you share your birthday with Stevie Nicks? I get to share mine with Little Richard, and Walt Disney. Stevie beats Disney, but I think Little Richard wins.
Hey there,
Thanks for the comment on my blog. It is appreciated.
Happy late birthday to you! I'm glad you had a better weekend.
Have a great week....

Always a treat to hear from you on my blog. I don't really know about the flag thing with that band, but YOU DO!
So good to hear from you,

Agh, I'm too late but happy happy birthday belatedly and all the good and wonderful times for this year!
Looks like you had an immensely fun birthday. A Hollywood studio tour and whatnot are not exactly an option in my part of the world :)
Yeah, Scorps rock, don't they :)

Hey, belated Birthday wishes Metalchick.
Hi Metalchick
Just came by to see how you're doing, and was sooo interested to read the story about the Hard Rock Cafe. Never knew that before!
Glad life is treating you better again and that you had a good day on your birthday.
Take care, honey scrunch

Glad you had a good birthday. Thanks for dropping by my blog earlier :-)
Happy Belated birthday on your pages this time.
Sounds you had a good one!
Finished reading The Da Vinci Code. Absolutely LOVED IT.
Gave myself a couple of days (not to get into some serious withdrawal) to begin reading Angels and Demons.
Have you read it?
take care and drop in again.
